POLICE REPORT

Rockdale police are asking residents in the northwest part of the city to “inventory” their jewelry after a rash of thefts in the area over the past several days.

“We already know that jewelry, including a ring, valued at several thousand dollars, was pawned in Rockdale and in Temple,” Lt. J. D. Newlin said.

Newlin said at least one of the thefts was outside the city limits.

“There could easily be more that simply haven’t been missed yet,” Newlin said.

Anyone who discovers missing jewelry is asked to call the police department at 512-446-3436.
